Instructions section of this application for specific details on the documentation required in each Item number.
Proposed projects are eligible only if:
1. Other development funding sources are insufficient to cover project development costs. (See Item C 2,
Worksheet to Determine Maximum Allowable Loan Amount ).
2. At the time of the application due date, the construction or rehabilitation work has not commenced, except for
emergency repairs to existing structures required to eliminate hazards or threats to health and safety (Section
7302 (a)(3) of MHP Regulations).
Does the Project meet these conditions? YES NO
** If you answer NO to this question please STOP. Your project is ineligible. If you answer YES please continue.
3. The Application and Attachments are complete pursuant to Sections 7318 and 7320(a)(4) of the MHP Regulations.
Applicants must complete and submit the Universal Application and Multifamily Housing Program-Specific
Checklist (Item A1).
4. The project site is free from severe adverse environmental conditions, such as the presence of toxic waste that is
economically infeasible to remove, pursuant to Section 7320 (a)(6) of the MHP Regulations . (Attach all available
Phase I or II Environmental Site Assessment Reports with any follow-up analysis (e.g., asbestos or lead based
paint analysis or information on mitigation completed).
5. In relation to the needs of the project tenants, the project site is reasonably accessible to public transportation,
shopping, medical services, recreation, schools, and employment, pursuant to Section 7320 (a)(7) of the MHP
Regulations . (Document in Item B 6)
6. The number of Assisted Units shall equal the number of Restricted Units to the extent allowed by the requirements
of Article XXXIV of the California Constitution (Health and Safety Code Section 37000). (Document in Item B 7
Evidence of Article XXXIV of the State Constitution compliance or its inapplicability).
7. Proposed projects involving new construction and requiring the demolition of existing residential Units are eligible
only if the number of bedrooms in the new Project is at least equal to the total number of bedrooms in the
demolished structures.
NOTE: The new Units may exist on separate parcels provided all parcels are part of the same rental housing
development (with common ownership, financing and management). In order to receive HCD approval as a
scattered site project, all sites in the project must be subject to similar tenant selection procedures, rent
restrictions, special needs groups to be served, and services to be provided. The sites will usually be contiguous
or in a close proximity to one another.
Relocation Eligibility Requirements – UMR Section 8302 and Section 7315 of the MHP Regulations:
8. Prior to funding, the sponsor will be required to comply with the relocation requirements set forth in Section 7315
of the MHP Regulations .
9. Will the project require tenants to vacate their units for any period of time; result in a rent increase; reduce the
number of units; or otherwise trigger federal or state relocation requirements?
YES NO
Page 14
MHP-Attachments Version: 1/31/2007
(If yes, attach a copy of the Relocation Plan in Attachment 4 of the Universal Application, if available or a
Preliminary Relocation Plan and budget which identifies the number of units affected and sources of funds for
relocation).
Housing Development Experience – Section 7303 ( c) of the MHP Regulations:
10. Threshold Eligibility: In order to be eligible for MHP funding, a Project Sponsor* must demonstrate experience
relevant to developing and owning one affordable rental housing project. For the purpose of determining eligibility,
developing and owning a small shared housing project may be counted. (Please note, however, project sponsors
must demonstrate experience with projects containing 5 or more units to score points in Item D3 and to meet
supportive housing requirements in Item B9. Bedrooms in a single-family house or apartment do not count as
units of housing for these purposes.)
Primary Method of Demonstrating Threshold Eligibility A Project Sponsor can demonstrate experience based
on organizational or staff experience as follows:
Project Sponsor, or an affiliated entity or partner, has successfully developed and owned an affordable rental
housing project. An affiliated entity of the Project Sponsor is defined for these purposes as an entity that is under
common control with the Project Sponsor.
Staff or principal employed by Project Sponsor, or an affiliated entity or partner, that has successfully developed
and owned an affordable rental housing project. In order for this experience to qualify, the staff or principal must be
the project manager and have comprehensive development responsibilities for the proposed Project. (Experience
of Board members of the Project Sponsor or an affiliated entity or partner does not qualify under this provision
unless they are also staff or principals as defined above.)
Project Sponsors using the Primary Method for Demonstrating Threshold Eligibility should complete the table
below:
Qualifying Entity:
Project Name and Subsidy Source Qualifying Entity Responsible Qualified Entity Owned Project at
Address (Including Tax for Comprehensive Completion Date (Indicate yes/no)
Credits) Development Responsibilities
of Project (Indicate yes/no)
* "Sponsor" means the legal entity or combination of legal entities with continuing control of the Rental Housing
Development. Where the borrowing entity is or will be organized as a limited partnership, Sponsor includes the
general partner or general partners who have effective control over the operation of the partnership, or, if the
general partner is controlled by another entity, the controlling entity. Sponsor does not include the seller of the
property to be developed as the Project, unless the seller will retain control of the Project for the period of time
necessary to ensure Project feasibility as determined by the Department.
Alternative Method of Demonstrating Threshold Eligibility
Special Needs Population Project Sponsors may establish threshold eligibility using the Primary Method
described above or this Alternative Method. To qualify for the Alternative Method, at least 70% of the Project Units
must be reserved for Special Needs Populations (and the Project must have met threshold requirements that
qualify it as a Special Needs Population Project).
Page 15
MHP-Attachments Version: 1/31/2007
The Alternative Method of Demonstrating Threshold Eligibility is designed to accommodate the differing ways
Special Needs Population projects are sometimes developed and owned. It allows Project Sponsors to submit
different projects for development experience and ownership experience. It also allows the Project Sponsor to
substitute the development experience of a contracted developer or development consultant for its own and
expands the criteria for ownership by including "operation" experience as a replacement for ownership. (For these
purposes, operation means controlling a property under a long-term lease or other arrangement that involves all
the responsibilities commensurate with ownership.)
Under this method of demonstrating threshold eligibility, the Project Sponsor may qualify for development
experience by contracting with a developer or development consultant , provided that the Project Sponsor has
contracted with the developer or development consultant for comprehensive development services.
Comprehensive development services include: financial packaging, selection of other consultants, selection of the
constructions contract and property management agent, oversight of architectural design, construction
management, and other major aspects of the development process.
Under this Alternative Method, the Project Sponsor may substitute operation experience for ownership experience,
as long as the roles and responsibilities of the Project Sponsor in the projects submitted for such experience is
commensurate with the ownership role and responsibilities in the proposed Project.
The Project Sponsor may qualify for ownership/operation experience based on the Sponsor’s own experience
or that of its affiliated entities and partners (as defined above in Primary Method of Demonstrating Threshold
Eligibility.) The Sponsor also may qualify for ownership/operation experience based on the experience of Staff or
principals employed by the Project Sponsor or an affiliated entity or partner, as long as the staff or principal will be
the project manager and have comprehensive development responsibilities for the proposed Project. (The
experience of Board members of the Project Sponsor or an affiliated entity does not qualify under this provision
unless they are also staff or principals as defined above.)
Project Sponsors using the Alternative Method for demonstrating Threshold Eligibility should complete the tables
below:
Development Experience:
List one affordable rental housing project completed by the developer or development consultant with whom
the Project Sponsor has a comprehensive development services contract and attach a signed copy of the
contract.
Contracted Developer/Development Consultant:
Project Name and Subsidy Source Qualifying Entity Responsible Qualified Entity Owned Project at

be limited to eligible households as defined in the MHP regulations.
1) Threshold Eligibility Criteria:
Describe tenant eligibility criteria relating to income (%SMI/AMI) and any other special needs.
2) Other Eligibility Criteria:
Describe eligibility criteria other than those indicated in subsection (1) above, i.e., information needed to determine if
applicant can comply with terms of a lease. (Please note: Selection criteria designed to assess anything other than the
ability to comply with the terms of a lease generally run afoul of Fair Housing laws designed to protect equal access to
housing for people with disabilities. Please see Between the Lines, A question and Answer Guide on Legal Issues in
Supportive Housing , Chapter 5)1
3) Marketing/Outreach:
Describe marketing/outreach efforts to publicize units.
4) Referral Sources:

Also, indicate how you will obtain third-party verification of tenant threshold eligibility, i.e., income, homeless/at-risk,
disability status.
Note: If your project will be serving people who are disabled due to long-term chronic health conditions, (i.e., eligibility for
PACE, MSSP, or 20 hours of IMSS personal care, etc.), you must indicate from whom and how you plan to obtain such
programmatic eligibility verification.
7) Fair Housing:
Describe your reasonable accommodation policies and protocols as they relate to targeting and tenant selection.

Note: The Department may condition funding on the elimination of restrictions that it believes to be impermissible, or reject
an application where it determines that compliance with applicable law is not feasible. A useful resource on the subject of
legal issues in Supportive Housing is Between The Lines, A Question and Answer Guide on Legal Issues in Supportive
Housing , published by the Corporation for Supportive Housing. The document is available online at www.csh.org.pub.html.
Part 2. SUPPORTIVE SERVICES PLAN
Special Needs Population projects shall be designed to provide affordable housing with access to an array of services and
supports for individuals whose ability to live independently would be improved by the availability of support services.
Applications for Special Needs Population projects must demonstrate that the project is linked to services that assist the tenant
to: retain the housing; improve his or her health; and maximize his or her ability to live and where possible, work in the
community.
The Department expects that projects applying for Special Needs Population project funding consideration will provide housing
that incorporates the following as characteristics of a Special Needs Population project: (1) it is independent housing in which
each tenant holds a lease or rental agreement in his or her own name, is responsible for paying his or her own rent, (2) has his
or her own room or apartment; (3) tenant may stay as long as her or she pays his or her share of rent and complies with the
terms of his or her lease; (4) it is tenancy housing, complying with applicable state and federal laws governing the landlord-
tenant relationship; (5) participation in services or any type of services is not required as a condition of tenancy.
Pursuant to UMR Section 8301(o), residential treatment programs and licensed facilities that provide health care services may
not be eligible for funding. Board and care facilities are not generally considered to be service-enriched housing since these
facilities do not typically offer the level of services required to sustain the tenancy of the Special Needs Populations targeted
under the MHP.
Page 25
MHP-Attachments Version: 1/31/2007
Section 1. Service Plan Summary:
Provide a short narrative summary of your service plan, including a description of the primary service needs of the target
populations, identification of the lead service provider and other significant service partners, a description of the key services
each will provided and how the project will be staffed. Be sure to demonstrate that the essential service needs of your target
population will be met (e.g., health services for people with chronic health conditions; mental health services for people with
mental illness). Please limit your response to two pages.
Section 2. Characteristics of Housing for Special Needs Populations:
Section 7341 of the Supportive Housing Regulations provides a definition of supportive housing that includes the following
characteristics. Please confirm compliance by checking all the characteristics that apply to the Special Needs Population.
Please conform compliance by checking all of the characteristics that apply to the Special Needs Population units in your
project.
Tenant holds a lease in his/her name and is responsible for paying rent.
Tenant has his/her own room or apartment and is individually responsible for arranging any shared
Tenant may stay as long as he/she pays his/her share of the rent and complies with the terms of his/her lease.
Unit is subject to applicable state and federal landlord tenant laws.
Tenant's participation in services or any particular service shall not be required as a condition of
Typically, all the characteristics listed above must be present in order for the project to be eligible for funding. However, please
explain mitigating circumstances for any missing characteristic.
Section 3. Verification from Appropriate Public or Non-profit Funding Agency
All applications shall include a verification from an appropriate funding entity (either public or non-profit) knowledgeable
about the supportive service needs of the targeted population, indicating that the proposed services are appropriate to
meet the needs of the targeted population(s). The verification shall endorse the project sponsor as a known provider of support
services to the target population the sponsor is proposing to serve. The project Sponsor and/or Service Provider are not
eligible to provide the Funding Agency Verification.
Please use the attached Supportive Services Verification from the Appropriate Public or Non-Profit Agency Form. Please
submit one verification for each target population checked in Part 1, Section2. If appropriate, a single funder may provide a
verification for multiple populations (i.e. a County Department of Health Services could provide a verification for a project
serving individuals with HIV/AIDS, Chronic Substance Abuse and Other Chronic Health Conditions). Please be sure to
indicate on the verification form the target populations to which each verification applies.

Section 5b. Staffing Levels
No hard and fast industry standards exist for supportive service staffing levels. However,
industry practice indicates a range of 10 to 15 tenant households per staff person for a project
serving a target population likely to need intensive services (i.e. homeless, dually-diagnosed
individuals). A project serving a less service-intensive target population could be staffed by a
range of 15 to 25 tenant households per staff person.
Indicate the staffing level for your project by completing the calculation below. If your staffing
level, as calculated below, differs from these industry practices, provide a narrative
explanation. The project must meet or address the industry standards.
a. Total Special Needs Population Project Units (Unit Calculation Table - Part 1, Section 1f) 0
b. Total FTE Support Service Staff (from FTE Column of Staffing Structure – Part 2, Section 5a) 0
c. Number of Special Needs Population Project Units Per FTE Staff Person (a÷ b) #DIV/0!
If the project serves multiple Special Needs households within individual units, also indicate the
staffing level per household by completing the calculation below.
d. Total Special Needs Households (Unit Calculation Table- Part 1, Section 1g) 0
e. Total FTE Support Service Staff (from FTE Column of Staffing Structure – Part 2, Section 5a) 0
f. Number of Special Needs Population Project Households Per FTE Staff Person (d ÷e) #DIV/0!
ITEM B9, PART 2, SECTION 6. TENANT ENGAGEMENT
Industry practice indicates that services to tenants in supportive housing should be voluntary.
That is, participation in services is not a requirement of tenancy. In order to elicit tenant
participation in services, successful service providers develop and implement plans for tenant
engagement.
Provide a narrative description of how you will engage tenants in services during the tenancy in
your project. NOTE: the tenant engagement plan is distinct from your marketing and outreach
efforts for attracting applicants to the project, as described in the Tenant Selection Narrative.

Section 1. Property Management Experience:
Industry practice indicates that a service-enriched housing project is best served by a property manager with
experience in providing property management in special needs.
The Sponsor shall document that the proposed property manager has at least 24 months experience
managing a supportive housing or special needs project of five or more dwelling units to qualify as a Rental
Housing Development. Complete and submit the table containing the information required below:

Item D3 Scoring Sheet - Instructions
DEVELOPMENT AND OWNERSHIP EXPERIENCE
OF THE PROJECT SPONSOR
Section 7320(b)(3) MHP Regulations - 20 Points Maximum
Primary Scoring Method - May be utilized by all Project Sponsors
Applications will be scored based on the number of affordable rental housing developments
(including tax credit projects) that the Project Sponsor has developed and completed ("completed
projects") in the five years preceding the application due date.
Four points are awarded for each qualified completed project, up to a maximum of twenty (20)
points.
To be counted towards points under this Primary Scoring Method, completed projects must contain ten
or more units, with one exception. When the proposed project contains less than fifteen units and at
least 70% of the total units in the proposed project are reserved for Special Needs Populations (and the
Project has met threshold requirements that qualify it as a Special Needs Population Project), a
completed project may have five units. For scoring purposes, units must be apartments or SROs;
bedrooms within single-family houses and apartments will not count as units.
Qualified completed projects will count for experience points if:
1) The Project Sponsor or its affiliate (an entity under common control with the Project
Sponsor) was the sole developer; or
2) The Project Sponsor or its affiliate developed the project in partnership with another entity,
provided that the Project Sponsor or its affiliate:
a) effectively controlled most key aspects of the development process, as
evidenced by partnership agreement and other indicators of control as determined
by the Department.
b) had sufficient staff to manage the development process for all of the
developments that it was involved with during the development period; and
c) received the majority share of the developer fee for the project; or
3) They were developed by staff currently employed by the Project Sponsor or its affiliate (or
a principal of the Project Sponsor or its affiliate), provided that this staff:
a) had primary responsibility for managing the entire development process for the
completed project; and
b) will serve as the project manager for the Project (or directly supervise the
project manager), with primary responsibility for managing the development
process.
Experience of board members will not be considered, unless they are also staff or principals.
Where the Project Sponsor is a partnership, only the experience of one entity will be considered. This
entity must have a controlling interest in the partnership, primary responsibility for development activities,
a controlling and continuing role in long-term operations, and sufficient qualified staff to carry out these
roles. It must also receive the majority share of the developer fee for the Project.
Page 51
MHP-Attachments Version: 1/31/2007
The Department will evaluate all sponsors, including the roles of any general partner(s) in a
limited partnership, to determine if the sponsor’s roles and responsibilities and benefits in the
project development and operations are commensurate with activities normally undertaken or
controlled by project developers and owners. The sponsor will be reviewed to determine if
adequate staffing levels exist to undertake and complete the project. This criteria will be applied
in evaluating Sponsor experience for the purpose of awarding points.
Alternative Scoring Method - For Special Needs Population Project Sponsors ONLY
Special Needs Population Project Sponsors may establish experience using the Primary Scoring
Method described above or this Alternative Scoring Method. To qualify for the Alternative Scoring
Method, at least 70% of the Project Units must be reserved for Special Needs Populations (and the
Project must have met threshold requirements that qualify it as a Special Needs Population Project).
The Alternative Scoring Method is designed to accommodate the differing ways Special Needs
Population projects are sometimes developed and owned. It allows Project Sponsors to submit different
projects for development experience and ownership experience. It also allows the Project Sponsor to
substitute the development experience of a contracted developer or development consultant for its own
and expands the criteria for ownership by including "operation" experience as a replacement for
ownership. (For these purposes, operation means controlling a property under a long-term lease or other
arrangement that involves all the responsibilities commensurate with ownership.)
Applications under this Alternative Scoring Method will be scored based on both the number of qualified
projects developed and completed in the five years preceding the application due date, and those
currently owned or operated. Four points are awarded for each project or pair of projects that
demonstrate development and ownership or operation experience, up to a maximum of twenty points.
For example, if a Project Sponsor or affiliated entity documents five projects demonstrating development
experience and four projects demonstrating qualified operating experience (and includes the required
supporting documentation), the Project would receive 16 points in this scoring category.
To be counted towards points under this Alternative Scoring Method, completed projects must contain
ten or more units, with one exception. When the proposed project contains less than fifteen units
and at least 70% of the total units in the proposed project are reserved for Special Needs
Populations (and the Project has met threshold requirements that qualify it as a Special Needs
Population Project), a completed project may have five units. For scoring purposes, bedrooms in a
single-family house or apartment do not count as units of housing.
As discussed above, under this method of scoring, the Project Sponsor may qualify for development
experience by contracting with a developer or development consultant, provided that the Project
Sponsor has contracted with the developer or development consultant for comprehensive
development services. Comprehensive development services include: financial packaging, selection of
other consultants, selection of the construction contractor and property management agent, oversight of
architectural design, construction management, and other major aspects of the development process.
Page 52
MHP-Attachments Version: 1/31/2007
Under this Alternative Scoring Method, the Project Sponsor may substitute operation experience for
ownership experience, as long as the roles and responsibilities of the Project Sponsor in the projects
submitted for such experience is commensurate with the ownership role and responsibilities in the

SCORING SHEET
LEVERAGE OF OTHER FUNDS
Section 7320 (b) (5) of the MHP Regulations - 20 Points Maximum
Applications will be scored based on the amount of non-MHP funds for permanent funding of the
development costs attributable to the restricted units, as a percentage of the requested amount of MHP
funds. Deferred developer fees will not be counted as leveraged funds. Land donations will be
counted as leveraged funds where the value is established with a current appraisal.
One half point will be awarded for every full 5 percentage point increment above 100%. Rural projects
will be awarded one half point for every full 5 percentage point increment above 50%.
For example, a non-rural project: where other funds are equal to 100% of requested MHP funds will
receive zero (0) points; where other funds equal 150% will receive 5 points; where other funds equal
200% will receive 10 points; where other funds equal 250% will receive 15 points; and where other funds
equal 300% will receive the maximum 20 points.
